This. It’s important to remember that this community is hosted on Futurology. The goal of this instance is to explore future technologies and ideas and we can’t do that objectively if we’re led by our biases. As humans, we have always hated being surpassed.

For those of you new to Autonomous Vehicles or Futurology, welcome. There’s genuinely some fantastic people here and incredibly high quality posts. I’m biased, but I feel this instance is incredibly underrated.
